The snake is a symbol of energy and power (both creative and destructive). Snakes intertwined represent the awakening of a dynamic force, the spirit of everything growing.

In Christianity, the snake is an ambivalent symbol, which in the Christian faith is associated with God and evil at the same time: it is both Christ, raised on the Tree of Life as a ransom sacrifice, and the devil in his chthonic hypostasis, which represents the evil that man must overcome in himself. She can personify the solar beginning and the lunar, male and female, death and rebirth, wisdom and blind passion, healing and poison.

In Ukrainian culture, the dual symbol of the snake has also been noted many times. As in most other countries, it was given ambiguous meaning. On the one hand, in many fairy tales you can find a mention that a person who has eaten the heart of a reptile will be able to learn the language of the animal and plant world. This suggests that crawling reptiles were associated with wisdom and knowledge.
On the other hand, the famous Horynich Snake plays the role of an insidious villain, with whom brave heroes are forced to risk their lives to fight. Victory over him means nothing more than the absolute triumph of good over evil.

The essence of the snake is dual and contradictory. She personifies both death and fear, as well as eternal rebirth. Containing such different qualities, the totem reptile strives for perfection and universal order. The use of such a multi-meaning snake jewellery promises a person the achievement of harmony.
